The public is advised that the City will exercise its pre-award option under the CDBG program. In addition to the 25% pre-award project costs that may be incurred without HUD approval, the City requested approval from HUD to incur pre-award costs in excess of 25% for the CDBG program. CDBG funds will be used to reimburse the City when funds become available, subject to sufficient funding from HUD.

Q The public is advised that the City requested, and HUD previously approved, CDBG pre-agreement costs in the amount of $2,500,000 in PY21/FY22.

QQ The public is further advised that the City requested, and HUD approved, the incurrence of CDBG pre-agreement costs in PY22/FY23 for the construction phase of the projects. CDBG funds will be used to reimburse the City when funds become available, subject to sufficient funding from HUD; subsequently, future CDBG awards may be impacted. For projects funded with future CDBG grant funds, if there should be a reduction in CDBG program funding, the City will distribute the reduction to all current non-multi-year projects proportionally. If there should be an increase in CDBG program funding, the City will fund the alternate projects identified in the current Action Plan.

The public is further advised that the City may incur pre-award costs under the HOME program that will not exceed 25% of the current HOME allocation. HOME funds will be used to reimburse the City when funds become available, subject to sufficient funding from HUD. Should funds not be available, the City will cover the costs or future funding for HOME projects may be reduced.

In addition, the City has prepared a list of alternate projects for the CDBG, HOME, and ESG programs, listed above, that will be funded in the event that selected projects cannot be implemented. The City may permit their funding in the subsequent fiscal year if there are insufficient funds in the current year. For the HOPWA program, if excess/unspent funds become available, funds will be reallocated among the agencies listed, provided that the agency is performing satisfactorily and has the ability to expend the funds in a timely manner.

The Twenty-Seventh (27th) Year Action Plan was approved by HUD on May 17, 2021. The Twenty-Seventh (27th) Year Action Plan projects are available for public review on the City’s website at http://www.honolulu.gov/cms-bfs-menu/site-bfs-sitearticles/408-federal-grants.html or on the Municipal Reference Center’s (MRC) online catalog at http://www4.honolulu.gov/docushare/dsweb/View/Collection-4170.
